I wonder if there's a taxbreak if at least 33% of an episode is flashback.

Impressions:

You would think that at the very least, for an episode that was being billed as OMG super drama huge by its staff, there would have been something here. Hell, piss off the anime incel subfandom by making guns be the bad guy. Made him accidentally shoot his brother, putting him in a coma and really giving Emoboy something to emo at. But nah. He shot a dude when he was slightly younger, so his brother went "No, we shot a dude. Also, all life is suffering." What did that have to do with the floating ramen villain of the week they anally assaulted? As much as it had to do with how everything ends up being a handsy monster that will be squirted once in the face and then rectally violated to explosive orgasm.

In any case, that settles that pretty decisvely. Join me next week when I return to start to close out the project dump with Bunny Black.

4 Shouts From the Peanut Gallery

Yeah, a gangster murderer who had literally ranted like a lunatic, complete with maniacal laughter, about his plot to murder him and his entire family. You can talk about how that would scar a real person for life, but that's coming on the heels of a song and dance about serial theft of bathwater to make soup stock, to say nothing of the sociopathic behavior of all of them in the last few episodes, the previous one especially. What makes THIS incident worth looking at through a completely different lens from every other one?

Them were the days inoffensive anthropomorphic heroes cartoons were a dime a dozen and fun. Imagine the turtles in these conformist days or in this anime. Donatello would want to do Leonardo, Leonardo would be trans, Raphael would be a hothead, drug dealing gangster and Michelangelo would be in a wheelchair cheerful all the time on his mobile messaging his trans brother. Splinter……he sucks pizza out of people’s butts.
